Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
AIM 1 (PRIMARY): Compare impact of TAU versus TAU+MBRP on medication adherence and drug-use outcomes. Hypotheses: Relative to TAU, TAU+MBRP participants will demonstrate a) greater MAT adherence measured at follow-up timepoints, and b) reduced drug-use (i.e., self-report, urine drug-screens \[UDS\]) measured at discharge and follow-up timepoints. AIM 2: Determine whether the beneficial effects of TAU+MBRP on outcome are mediated by improvements in opioid craving and dispositional mindfulness. Hypotheses: TAU+MBRP participants will report greater improvements in distress tolerance and mindfulness, relative to TAU, which will mediate treatment outcomes (i.e., MAT adherence, reduced drug use and positive-UDS). EXPLORATORY AIM 3: Determine effects of baseline factors on treatment outcomes. Hypotheses: More severe trauma exposure (i.e., increased number of traumas) and greater posttraumatic stress symptom severity will result in poorer treatment adherence (i.e., reduced MAT follow-up appointments) and worse drug-use outcomes (i.e., increased self-reported drug use, positive-urine drug-screens) throughout each the follow-up assessments among TAU participants but not among MBRP participants.
Study Design Overview: In an randomized controlled trial design, patients enrolling into a residential addiction treatment center will be randomized to TAU (i.e., MAT, supportive group therapy) or TAU+MBRP with comparisons being made between MBRP (n=100) and treatment-as-usual (TAU; n=100) on assessment measures collected at baseline, prior to residential discharge, and at 1, 2, and 3-month follow-up time points. To address AIM 1 (TAU+MBRP, Adherence and Drug-Use): participants will be randomly assigned to receive TAU or MBRP+TAU, during their residence within an inpatient treatment setting and will complete assessments at enrollment, prior to discharge, and at 1, 2, and 3-months follow-up to assess MAT adherence and drug-use. Comparisons, on assessment measures collected at follow-up, will be made between treatment conditions to determine if MBRP+TAU results in greater number MAT adherence, fewer positive UDS, reduced drug-craving, and increased mindfulness. AIM 2 (MBRP Mechanisms of Change): Will determine whether the beneficial effects of MBRP on treatment outcome (i.e., MAT adherence, drug-use) are mediated by increases in mindfulness and distress tolerance. AIM 3 (Predictors of MAT Adherence): will examine the extent to which prior trauma-exposure and PTSD symptom severity moderates MAT adherence and drug-use outcomes, among TAU participants (but not MBRP participants), following discharge from residential treatment.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention - Rolling Admission (MBRP-RA)
Group intervention comprised of didactics and trainings in cognitive behavioral therapy relapse prevention skills and mindfulness meditation.
Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention - Rolling Admission (MBRP-RA)
Integrates evidenced-based practices to decrease the probability and severity of relapse for those in addiction recovery. MBRP incorporates components from CBT relapse prevention and includes training in meditation practices as a means to foster increased awareness of emotional and cognitive experiences. MBRP also includes training in brief informal meditations aimed at increasing awareness and adaptive response to drug cues and negative affect.
Treatment-As-Usual (TAU)
Standard procedure for residential treatment program. Includes: supportive group therapy; Narcotics Anonymous/12-Step Programming; music, art, and animal therapy; psycho-education on issues related to mental health and substance use disorders; and medication counseling. No aspect of the treatment-as-usual services provided entails mindfulness training or components of mindfulness training.
Treatment-As-Usual
Standard treatment programming procedures for all individuals residing within the residential treatment program. Includes: supportive group therapy; Narcotics Anonymous/12-Step Programming; music, art, and animal therapy; psycho-education on general issues related to mental health and SUDs; and medication counseling.
